Foxy Brown

She is a one woman hit squad! Pam Grier is handed a much better script in Foxy Brown than she was Coffy. Coffy was dark and sexy but all of the actors and actresses overacted way too much. Foxy Brown is about a woman who is out for revenge on a female pimp for having her boyfriend, an ex-undercover drug agent, shot and killed. To get even, Foxy, played by Grier, knows her brother was the looser who blew the whistle on where to find her boyfriend and kill him. So Foxy goes after her brother to find out who he is working for and get revenge.

Foxy joins a call girl service to get on the inside and get information on those that killed her man. As it turns out, the judges in the community are on the take. The call girls service the judges in exchange for a good time and then the drug lords and the call girl agency are off the hook. Foxy is great at taking matters into her own hands and humiliates one of the judges she is to service by forcing him out the door and into the hotel hallway with nothing on but his shirt! Needless to say, he got what he deserved from a group of angry and offended women!




The violence in this movie is not nearly as strong or as gory as in Coffy. The acting and the story is much better as well. The funniest scene in the movie finds Coffy in the hospital room with her boyfriend. His entire face is bandaged up and Foxy and he decide this would be a great play to get down and get funky! The Aid walks in and catches them in the act and not only tells him that was a no-no, but slaps his you know what when she pulls off his gown to give him a bed bath. I guess he was making a point and she knocked it down. The nurse aid took a page out of Foxy's book. Great film Love it!
